COPING FINANCIALLY
With the New Year comes the timt
to: make resolutions for a mort
prosperous 1975; take inventory ol
your net worth; identify change:
desired; act to bring those changes intc
reality by adopting new techniques foi
increased wealth and discarding pool
habits
Money problems aw a growing
reality. They may threaten your 1975
but they don't have to mar it. Exercise
your control and work to ease money
problems and to increase wealth
Consider: that wealth is largely due tc
habit (of saving. investing
accumulating) and that only to the
determined ones does wealth accrue
You might try a family project to
enhance your financial position. This
will require agreement, renewed
thinking, and concerted action from all
users of the family money. Why not
explore and test Such an idea-you can't
lose financially.
IDEAS FOR F1NANCIAI
IMPROVEMENT
I. Tally your net worth and determine
your financial progress Net
Worth=Assets minus tabilities (debts
owed). Are you operating in the black
(assets greater than liabilities) or in the
red? Assets 'include: (a) the market
value of physical capital (real estate,
home, durable and valuable goods), (b)
value of claims (money, savings, each
surrender value of life insurance, market
value of stocks and bonds, and value of
other money benefits receivable), and
human capital (value in increased
earning power for self-improvement). A
net worth statement should distinguish
between accumulated wealth and
accumulated junk and reveal your true
financial situation.
, 3. Adopt and follow a budget. This is
the surest way to bridge the gap
between expenditures and earnings and
provide for financial success. A
well-made budget: (a)
identifies the stock (quantity measured
at a particular time) and flow (quantity
measured during a time period) of
family money ; (b) designates how much
money is to be spent and how much is
to be saved for emergencies and future
purchases; (c) lists in order of priority
things to be purchased and approximate
time of purchase; (d) states the amount
of money that can be used for each type
of expenditure such as food, clothing,
recreation, etc.: (e) maintains records of
how the money is actually used; (f)
evaluates appropriateness of budget in
terms of family goals and makes
necessary changes for improvement.
Budgeting is a way to control
expenditures and to assure using your
money for things that are most
important .
3 Maximize the buying power of your
dollar. Decide exactly what is needed
and the maximum amount you can
invest before going to the market.
Compare the extra costs and benefits of
alternative goods, and avoid overbuying
style, convenience or prestige features.
Buy only the quality of goods
needed-an irregular quality or used item
may fit the need as well as a new one.
Before making any purchase, weight its
opportunity cost (value of what is being
sacrificed). Learn to bargain, especially
for big ticket items; the ticket price may
not be the lowest selling price. Plan
purchases to take advantage of as many
price reduction sales as possible.
BUYING POWER SUCCESS =
WORTHWHILE GOODS & SERVICES
FOR FEWEST DOLLARS.
4. Minimize Use of Credit. The cost of
credit increases the cost of the product,
reduces the buying power of dollars,
and places a liability on future income.
Think in terms of total cos. of credit. Is
it worthwhile?
5. Get maximum service from goods.
Four: habits of using goods as long as
economically feasible-use up
completely or until repairs are too
expensive. Fewer replacements for items
means more money available for other
needs or wants. Why not analyze
family's habits in using products; then
identify and eliminate waste?
t> Put goods and talent to productive
use. Try your hand at creativity-alter,
repair, improvise, restore and put idle or
retiied goods into useful service Such
projects might be substituted for family
recreation activities. The goods
produced might be used in the home,
shared with others, or sold for extra
cash. Also consider ways of using
personal ability and available time for
increased earning power
